Campaign website
Hart’s campaign website stated the following:
“ |
Economic Reform Inflation is a tax on all Americans. The Biden administrations irresponsible spending and economic policies are to blame for the worst inflation in American history. I am committed to cutting government waste and fixing our economy
I support strong control of our nations borders, knowing who is entering our country, and enforcement of our nations immigration laws and not rewarding those who violate them.
As a leading state expert on election integrity, I have found corruption at every level and will never stop exposing it to the public. Unlike many others, I am not just talk, and have actually shown I know what to do to restore election integrity.
As a gun owner, I am an advocate for gun rights, support responsible gun ownership and will oppose any legislation that infringes upon the 2nd Amendment.
As a whistle blower, I have already identified hundreds of millions of dollars of waste, fraud, and abuse in Washington state. Watch what I do when you send me to D.C.!
I am an absolute supporter of the right of unborn children to live and will protect their lives as I would every life.
Our school system is failing students. From misguided social programs that don't belong in school to dishonest sales tactics used by colleges. I will defend parental rights and fight to stop the sexualization of children in school!
I am someone who actually is an infrastructure expert, understands how broken the system is, and I will not tolerate our government incompetency that is leading to its collapse.
Religious beliefs must be respected and not dismissed or trampled on. This was a founding reason our Country exists and this right must be protected and I will do just that.
As a Navy Veteran who served overseas, I support a strong military and will not tolerate discrimination against my fellow Veterans and have shown I know what to look for.
As a father of three I believe the childcare crisis goes hand in hand with our nations recovery from the COVID epidemic. As an advocate for all families in my regions, I will fight for this issue.
The government has through ignorance and incompetence allowed this problem for far too long and its time to fix it. Stopping unnecessary regulations and crony capitalism are critical. [2] |

2020
Cody Hart completed Ballotpedia's Candidate Connection survey in 2020. The survey questions appear in bold and are followed by Hart's responses. Candidates are asked three required questions for this survey, but they may answer additional optional questions as well.
Collapse all
|Over the last several years, I have been using my expertise as a professional engineer to expose hundreds of millions of dollars of waste, fraud, and abuse that government has allowed through ignorance or incompetence. At the same time, I have been fighting rampant discrimination against veterans and minority owned businesses. I am tired of hearing that no one will be held accountable, and that raising taxes is the answer.
I have a better answer, and I actually have the skills needed to fix these problems. I will hold government accountable, and will work with others. That is why I decided to run for U.S. Representative.
I am the only candidate who actually has experience holding government accountable, who is an infrastructure expert, who has served honorably in the military, and who owns a small business. Most importantly, I promise to put our Country and region's needs above partisan politics.
- I am the only candidate who is actually an infrastructure expert, understands how broken the system is, and has the skills needed to fix it.
- As a business owner who is also whistle blower, I have already identified hundreds of millions of dollars of waste, fraud, and abuse in Washington state so watch what I do when you send me to D.C.
- As a Navy Veteran, I will not tolerate discrimination against my fellow Veterans and minorities and have shown I have the expertise to know what to look for.
Infrastructure, Government Accountability, Religious Freedom, Veteran Services, Education Reform, Sustainability, Bipartisanship, Affordable Housing
My determination to stop government waste, fraud, and abuse has been well documented in Washington state and is a quality no other candidate can compete with. While many candidates have good intentions, I have shown I have not only the professional skills to do the job, but the determination and grit to not stop until its done.
